9.29 Ct. Cabochon Smokey Quartz from Brazil

From the rich pegmatite fields of Brazil to the refined display case, this transparent 9.29 carat pear shape yellowish brown smokey quartz has traveled a careful and curated path, arriving at The Natural Gemstone Company as a rare example of natural beauty and integrity, dimensions 18.48 x 14.39 x 5.63 mm, cabochon cut. Unlike many mass market stones that are heat treated or irradiated to intensify color, this gem is offered with no enhancement, preserving the soft, light color intensity that collectors and designers prize. At the mine the rough crystal was selected for its clarity and internal character, then shipped to master cutters who chose a cabochon profile to emphasize the stone s inherent transparency and warm tone, rather than concealing it under heavy faceting. The result is an eye clean specimen that reads as both luminous and understated, with an excellent polish that catches light smoothly across its pear silhouette, offering a tactile and visual quality often missing in cheaper, heavily processed alternatives.

When you compare this piece to other smoky quartz options on the market, the distinctions are clear, more natural provenance, a superior polish, and the rare combination of size and clarity at this price tier. Many smoky quartz pieces of similar carat weight arrive heavily included or darkened to mimic depth, which can limit versatility in jewelry settings, while this specimen maintains a balanced, wearable hue that complements both warm and cool metals. The cabochon cut makes it ideal for bezel settings, artisan rings, and statement pendants where a smooth domed surface enhances color play and wearer comfort, unlike faceted stones that can be more prone to chipping in daily wear. As a piece from Brazil, it carries a reputation for geological richness, and when paired with The Natural Gemstone Company s commitment to ethical sourcing and transparent practices, you receive not just a gem, but a provenance story that adds value and peace of mind. For designers and collectors seeking a naturally untreated, beautifully finished smoky quartz that stands apart in quality and authenticity, this pear shape cabochon is a superior choice, ready to become the centerpiece of a timeless creation.
